Xiao Lian's heart sank. She knew that she couldn't hide it anymore. Her face turned green and white. She slowly raised her head to look at Xu Ling 'er, but when her eyes met hers, she immediately lowered her head.
Xu Ling 'er's eyes flashed with ruthlessness. A cold light flashed in her hand and the sword was placed on her neck. She said in a cold voice," I can't tolerate disloyal people here." You were sent by Mu Yunlan, weren't you? He was the one who asked you to bring the sword over, right?”
Xiao Lian's hands tightened, her nails digging into her flesh. Bean-sized beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Are you going to tell me or not?"
"Young lady, I…the emperor didn't allow me to say…"
"The Emperor?" She chuckled, and the coldness in her eyes intensified." Mu Yunlan has finally climbed from the Crown Prince's position to where she is today. It's not easy."”
Xiao Lian's heart trembled and she knelt on the ground in a panic.
"Young lady, if you have something to say, you can't say it carelessly.”
"Why not?" As she spoke, she put the sword on her back, and a powerful aura instantly spread from her body.
"In my eyes, he's just an ungrateful villain.”
"Miss, I know you're feeling uncomfortable. However, this is the Imperial Palace and there are people watching the surroundings. Please be careful with your words.”
Xu Ling 'er snorted coldly and sheathed her sword.
"If you tell me everything, I won't kill you.”
Ling Tian took a step forward and protected Xin 'er and Xiao Long behind him.
"You really are a spy sent by that person.”
"I'm not." Xiao Lian hurriedly waved her hands, so anxious that her forehead was covered in cold sweat." I've been taking care of you for so long. I've already treated you as my family.”
"Then tell me what happened."
Xiao Lian bit her lips hard and weighed her options before saying,"His Highness the Crown Prince has long ascended the throne and is now the Emperor of Beichen.”
"What else?"
"The emperor is now the ruler of the world, and the people are safe and sound.”
Xu Ling 'er snorted." You know that's not what I'm asking."”
Xiao Lian bit her lips tightly, but she couldn't tell Xu Ling 'er about Mu Yunlan doting on her new consort. However, she probably couldn't hide it anymore.
Xu Ling 'er looked at her troubled expression and snorted lightly." I know even if you don't say it. Mu Yunlan probably already has a new concubine. Now is the time to pamper her, right?"”
Xiao Lian nodded.
Xu Ling 'er's heart was burning with rage. Although he already had the answer in his heart, when he really heard it, his heart felt like it was being torn apart.
She seemed to have lost her balance and took a few steps back before she could stabilize her figure.
A fishy and sweet feeling instantly surged up her throat.
"Wow!"
Xu Ling 'er spat out a mouthful of blood.
Ling Tian turned pale with fright as he rushed forward to embrace her.
"Sister!"
"Miss!"
Xu Ling 'er laughed bitterly," I'm fine..." She pushed Ling Tian away as she spoke, supporting her body as the scene in front of her gradually became blurry.
"I had long guessed that this would happen, but I still had some hope in my heart.”
Xu Ling 'er slowly walked to the door with her sword in hand. "I want to see Mu Yunlan."”
As soon as she finished speaking, a man in black appeared in front of her.
"Young lady, the emperor will not see you. It was better to go back and stay there. Don't think too much."
Xu Ling 'er looked at him quietly and chuckled. She pulled out her sword and strode out.
The man in black frowned and pulled out the long sword at his waist. The woman in front of him was pale, and fresh blood hung from the corner of her mouth.
"Young Lady, you should go back."
Xu Ling 'er ignored him and took another step forward. Suddenly, a cold light flashed, followed by the sound of weapons colliding. Ling Tian hugged Xu Ling 'er and took a step back, causing another wound to appear on his arm.
Ling Tian's gaze was cold as he frowned at Xu Ling 'er who seemed to have lost her soul. A palm struck the back of her head. He fainted.
When he woke up again, Ling Tian was sitting by the bed, wiping the sword in his hand. Seeing that she had woken up, he hurried forward." Sister, you're awake?”
Xu Ling 'er chuckled." Did I scare you just now?"”
" Sister…" Ling Tian lowered his head," If you want to see him, I can help you kill a path of blood.”
Xu Ling 'er slowly sat up and looked out the window. The sky was already dark.
She couldn't tell how many times she had seen such an endless night. But every time, she would face the silent night alone. There was an indescribable desolation in his heart.
Xu Ling 'er slowly stood up from the bed and walked to the window.
"Did Xiao Lian say anything else?”
Ling Tian did not have as many worries as Xiao Lian. Looking at her, he said,""I heard that he likes that woman very much now. Moreover, he had delayed many things because of her.”
"What did you delay?"
Ling Tian frowned," It seems to have delayed the government.”
Xu Ling 'er's face was as pale as snow as she laughed out loud." He said that the people are safe and sound, but now he's abandoning the government for a woman. He really has the guts to do this."”
Ling Tian looked at her worriedly as he took a step forward and placed his coat over her shoulders," Sister, are you alright?”
"I'm fine." Xu Ling 'er chuckled and turned to look at the sword on the table." That sword was once a famous sword in the world, but I didn't expect it to be covered in dust here."”
"Sister, if you think this is a place that makes you sad, why don't we leave together?”
Xu Ling 'er chuckled." It's not that easy to leave." The three people outside, I simply…"
Suddenly, a figure appeared at the entrance of the palace. Xu Ling 'er's remaining words were stuck in her throat.
That person's figure was very familiar, but his Shen Bin was with a beauty.
Mu Yunlan seemed to notice her gaze as she turned her head around. There was no warmth in her eyes, and she looked at her as if she was looking at a stranger.
Xu Ling 'er's heart ached, but she still looked at her quietly.
It felt like an entire century had passed before Mu Yunlan finally turned her head away.
The beauty next to her glanced at her and laughed." Your Majesty, that's the young lady of the Ling Family. She's really different from before." He really couldn't tell at all. No wonder everyone was deceived in the past."
"Yes, that's right." Mu Yunlan smiled as she replied. Her gaze no longer fell on Xu Ling 'er.
"Alright, now you've seen it, my beloved consort. Let's go back. Those who were more exposed might catch a cold.”
The smile on the beauty's face grew wider." Sure." ChenQie was too willful, and still wanted the emperor to accompany me to such a far place.”
"I'm fine. If you want to see it, of course I will bring you here.”#
